Updated, 7:30 a.m. Monday OCEAN COUNTY, NJ — With a strong winter storm heading for New Jersey on Monday and Ocean County under a winter storm warning and a state of emergency, some school districts are taking precautions, delaying their openings or closing completely. The closings are traditional snow days. There are no provisions by the state for districts to shift to remote instruction for a weather emergency closing. Districts without emergency days built into their school calendars will be adjusting their calendars to make up the day, as they must have 180 days of school under state law. These are the districts that have announced closures. Some that had announced delayed openings changed those to closures Monday morning: CLOSURES Ocean County Vocational-Technical SchoolsBarnegat Township SchoolsBerkeley Township SchoolsBrick Township SchoolsCentral Regional School DistrictDonovan CatholicEagleswood Elementary School Island Heights Grade SchoolJackson Township Schools Lacey Township SchoolsLakehurst Elementary SchoolLavallette Elementary SchoolLittle Egg Harbor SchoolsManchester Township SchoolsPinelands Regional SchoolsPoint Pleasant Borough Schools Point Pleasant Beach Borough SchoolsSt. Joseph Elementary School, Toms RiverHugh J.
